My computer spec is

Seasonic G550W
GPU 970 palit jetstream

Insufficient PSU?

check yr gpu fan is it running or not.

 

[kelvin52]

it is running. i tried taking out the GPU and it just shut down just now again while i was using like 7 tabs.

Psu i bought it last year though. 550W should be enough?

If it happens without graphics card, try running memtest?

If memtest no problem try another psu

Your PSU is from Seasonic low end range, so can't expect much.

 

[kelvin52]

Before u change, must confirm not ram problem

i did the memtest. how long does it last? the top corner shows 100% pass n 100% test but below shows 0 pass n 0 error

Likely is heating issue or power issue. Run hwm and see any abnormal temperature. See whether u can borrow a 650 w psu.

Try reading my thread.. Might be similar problem... But I haven't repair mine, taking it as a opportunity to reduce dependency on desktop

 

[Trix08]

No BSOD meaning likely PSU problem. Swap it with something else to test. If not PSU and no memtest error then mobo kong already.

Your psu how long? Mine every parts is only got a year. And where you can find it say power surge in your bios

Hmm I think since 2013? Let's just say head of 2013. Age is just another factor as these things are electronics while may fail any time after all

Asus boots to this page where it says what went wrong.
2 instances I encountered was memory settings (XMP related) and power surge.

Hold up, maybe that's not in the BIOS.............

Let me link an similar occurrence I found online

OK means confirm PSU problem. Hopefully not surge problem either. Try RMA since have warranty
